Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers thinks he will have to outwit one of the managers of the season to maintain his side's recent resurgence.

The Reds are unbeaten in 10 Barclays Premier League games but Rodgers expects a strong test as Sean Dyche brings relegation battlers Burnley to Anfield on Wednesday.

Early in that sequence Raheem Sterling struck as the Merseysiders edged to an unconvincing 1-0 win at Turf Moor and, despite the improvement in form since, Rodgers knows his team will need to be alert.

Danny Ings has been in good form and linked to a move to Liverpool, whom he will face on Wednesday.

Burnley boss Sean Dyche expects Danny Ings to deliver another high-calibre performance on Wednesday -- but not one additionally motivated by the fact the opposition will be the striker's reported suitors Liverpool.

The Reds are among several clubs to have been linked with Ings, who has scored nine goals for Burnley this season and is out of contract in the summer.
